After collecting $1.5 million at the box office, UFC’s
owners started to see a return on the investment they made almost two years
earlier.

Shamrock increased his star power by appearing for the World
Wrestling Federation during its super-hot “Attitude Era.” He stepped back into
the Octagon for the first time since 1996 and cashed in on a war of words with Ortiz.

“I remember standing
there before the Ortiz/Shamrock fight and looking around,” he said. “The energy
of that fight, it was phenomenal, and it was the first time I honestly said,
it’s going to make it.”
